Charles Green has been criticised for using "racist and offensive language" by a leading anti-racism charity.
Show Racism the Red Card has spoken out against the Rangers chief executive, who made two references in a newspaper interview at the weekend.
Green described his relationship with Rangers director Imran Ahmad in the article, in which he stated he referred to him openly as his "Paki friend".
The Yorkshire-born businessman also made reference to a former team-mate, who he said was known as "Darkie" Johnson.

Pressed further on whether such actions would be accepted from a member Ally McCoist's squad, he replied: "Would I accept it from a player? In terms of being said in a friendly way or a disparaging way?
"I only use it with Imran. I don't use it in the public domain.
"No it would be inappropriate. He would subject to an investigation or if there was a complaint. Imran hasn't complained."

no that term is common in Britain
Bhoy looks desperate, he could look at his own fans and club first when talking about racism etc.

Other than the hypocrisy at the end, there's virtually no difference between this and the Suarez case last year.

The last time my club was charged with racism?
DeadCo, on the other hand, had to play qualifiers behind closed doors last season due to bigotry.

And you accuse me of reaching?
Of course, this won't be the end of Green. His lies to Whyte will be his undoing. That, and ZombieCo's hemorrhaging of a million pounds a season.

You suck at this whole Internet thing.

SFA brings charges on Green
quote:
IT HAS emerged that Rangers chief executive Charles Green will face two charges of bringing the game into disrepute.
On Wednesday, the Scottish Football Association issued a notice of complaint to the 59-year-old concerning alleged racist language, after he referred to Rangers business partner Imran Ahmad as his “little Paki friend” in a newspaper interview published last Sunday.
However, those are not the only comments he will be asked to explain at Hampden on 25 April, with SFA sources last night confirming that he will also be grilled over remarks broadcast on Radio Clyde on Monday, 8 April.
In an interview recorded last September but not aired until its appearance on Clyde’s Super Scoreboard programme at the start of this week, Green ended his conversation with reporter Gerry McCulloch by saying: “No surrender.”
The phrase is sung by Rangers fans in the Loyalist anthem Derry’s Walls, a song which refers to the Siege of Derry in 1689 and the interview was aired belatedly in order to illustrate Green’s capacity for making ill-advised statements.

I'm seriously considering becoming a Rangers fan.

Do it. That will make the impending death of Zombie FC even more enjoyable.

I'm beginning to think they actually don't play football in Scotland. Green and white clothed people attack blue and red clothed people because of money, racism and religious differences (and vice versa).
Somehow we're tricked into believing that an actual sport in that country exists.
